I’d rather Cameron was patient than brave – Matthew Parris
A rather good article from Matthew Parris in response to Fraser Nelson’s more strident thoughts.
His summing up is correct. The Tories need to be patient to effect the real change we want to make to this country. Going in with all guns blasting will not work.
Yes, political courage is needed; but no, all that is needed is not political courage. Patience, reticence and good timing are needed too, and discretion can be the better part of valour. If (like me) you are sure that David Cameron does not lack valour, and if you’re confident his heart and head are in a good Tory place, then give him that discretion
